Sam and Dean watched the pyre burn with solemn eye's.

Then Bobby walked out and stood next to the boys. 'So that's the end of all of Lucifer's ties?' Sam nodded in silence, watching the flames dance and burn around Nick's body.

Dean sighed. 'I hope the poor bastards not in Hell...'

But they all knew the answer to that...

The brothers turned away from the smoldering pile, a sigh coming from Sam.

Was it really over-?

Castiel appeared beside the dying embers now, a frown upon his face.

Maybe...

Nick groaned and opened his eyes, body in agony from the chains holding him place in the infinite darkness. He sighed and looked down- but there was nothing to see.

'Lemme go!' He yelled. The only response was an echo of his own voice, which was almost broken.

So this was Hell... it didn't come as much of a surprise.

He had said yes to Lucifer after all...

Suddenly, there was a light in the distance, coming towards him, growing ever brighter.

He closed his eyes as the light overwhelmed him.

'Nick?'

Nick had his eyes clenched tightly- he didn't want to see what new horrors the bastards had for him...

'Nick; open your eyes.'

With a resigned sigh, he opened his eyes-

And was very surprised to find himself among trees and flowers. Nick frowned, standing up- he hadn't felt this good in a long time.

Then he remembered and spun around to face a man which he'd never seen before. His skin was dark cocoa colored, and his eyes exuded an air of being old.

'Nick.' The man smiled, holding out a hand. Nick stared for a moment, then took it, frowning.

'Who are you? And were am I?' He asked, letting him go.

'My name is Joshua, and you-' He gestured around. 'Know where you are.

Nick stared. I- I don't know.'

Joshua sighed, then said. 'Walk with me.'

Again, Nick stared, but he followed the man.

As they walked through the garden, Nick wondered.

'How did I get out of Hell?'

Joshua smiled. 'That-' the grin widened. 'Is the right question.'

Nick understood, but it was impossible-?

'I'm in Heaven?'

Joshua nodded. 'We got a message from high up. To pull you out and bring you here.'

Nick's insides jolted- someone saved his skin-?

'Bu-? I said Yes to Lucifer...' he gestured at himself, looking at his reflection in the little pond; his burns were gone from his face.

Joshua sighed. 'You were forgiven- your... the emotional trauma you experienced was what triggered it.' Joshua's smile returned slightly. 'You were Pardoned.'

Then he sighed and looked at his... watch?

'I must be going. These are dark times now we have lost our leader, and gained a new one.'

He vanished before Nick could put a word in edge ways- now he was lost in Heaven.

Nick sighed and turned away, heading onto the path, following it, hoping it would lead him to a better place.

Suddenly, not too long after, he heard a slight creaking noise to his right. Frowning, he turned- and felt his eye's widen in shock;

It was Sarah.

But-? She was in her early twenties.

Sarah smiled as she saw him, getting of the swing and running over to him, grinning ear to ear. She grabbed his hand and pulled him over to the swing, sitting him down on it, then pushed it, standing on the seat behind him, making the swing go backwards and forwards, wind in her ebony hair.

He remembered this- it was when they were first dating- the first time she'd said she loved him.

It wasn't the only flashback- there were times from his childhood, meeting Sarah for the first time, getting married, finding out he was going to be a father, and then holding his child for the first time.

How happy he'd been.

But as the last memory of happier times faded, he was faced with a figure that he knew instinctively that wasn't an illusion.

Sarah smiled. 'Hello Nick.'

He stood there, transfixed in surprise, shock, happiness and love. Sarah walked forwards, stopping in front of him.

'Is that really you-?' He asked, speechless, putting a hand on her cheek. She smiled, putting hers over it. 'It's me.'

Nick genuinely smiled, then hugged her tight.

'Oh god I missed you.' He said into her shoulder. Sarah laughed and hugged him back.

'And I you.'

Nick let go and stared at her, eye's brimming. Sarah laughed, taking his hand.

'Now we can all be together forever yeah?' She laughed. 'No big bad Devil to stop us.?

Nick laughed.

'Forever it is then.'
